Review & FAQ:

The Palmetto Island State Park is located along the Vermilion River and offers a true experience of the great outdoors of southern Louisiana. The boat launch in the park provides opportunities for boating and fishing, while kayakers and canoers can float down the lagoon for a close up look at native animal and plant life. Six cabins are available at the Palmetto Island State Park for overnight visitors, with each one able to comfortably sleep as many as eight people. There are also RV and tent camping sites. The Visitor Center complex includes a bathhouse and water playground.
